| SELECTION OF BIG SAGEBRUSH BY SAGE GROUSE | WELCH B L | 1988 |
SELECTION OF BIG SAGEBRUSH BY SAGE GROUSEKeywordsNo keywords available AbstractFeeding sites of wintering sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) were located, one each in stands of three subspecies of big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata: ssp. tridentata, basin; ssp. vaseyana, mountain, and spp. wyomingensis. Wyoming [USA]). Evidences of differential use of plants within subspecies were observed. Whole leaves from fed-on and nonfed-on big sagebrush plants were examined for intrasubspecies chemical comparisons of crude protein, phosphorus, in vitro digestibility, and monoterpenoids. No significant differences were detected except for in vitro digestibility of Wyoming fed-on and nonfed-on big sagebrush and monoterpenoid content of basin big sagebrush. Nutritive content of all three subspecies was high, which may in part help to explain wintering sage grouse weight gains.

| LEK ORGANIZATION IN SAGE GROUSE - VARIATIONS ON A TERRITORIAL THEME | GIBSON, RM | 1987 |
LEK ORGANIZATION IN SAGE GROUSE - VARIATIONS ON A TERRITORIAL THEMEKeywordsNo keywords available AbstractDuring a 5-year study of sage grouse (Centrocercus urphasianus) in eastern California, displaying males abandoned territoriality througout one breeding season and did so intermittently in three others. Abandonment followed a severe winter and was correlated with a change from location-dependent to hierarchical dominance relationships between males. Intermittent territorial breakdowns occurred when males left their territories to approach and, in 2 years, to mate with females off the lek. These observations imply that the social mechanisms of sexual selection may vary between leks in the species and suggest a novel function for lek territoriality: territories may act as rendezvous sites with females.
